Atlantis ducked through clouds as it roared up at 1901 BST (1401 EDT) from Florida's Kennedy Space Center.

Mission managers have packaged a complex series of repairs and upgrades into five challenging spacewalks

Every time I see a successful Shuttle launch or re-entry...I find myself thinking, "U-S-A, U-S-A, U-S-A!"
